Timeline
Elisha Qimron (born 5 February 1943) is an academic who studies ancient Hebrew.
During the late 1970s and the early 1980s, many scholars felt frustrated at the delay in publishing the Dead Sea Scrolls.
It was generally known that most of the texts had been translated but still had not been available to researchers.
Some also complained about the proprietary attitude of some of Strugnell's team toward the scrolls that they were working on, which made access to them difficult, if not impossible, in some cases.
Hershel Shanks, of the Biblical Archaeology Society, decided that the reconstructions of the Dead Sea Scrolls should be made available to scholars.
He took his Doctor of Philosophy in 1976 at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem with the dissertation The Hebrew of the Dead Sea Scrolls.
Currently, he is a professor in the Department of Hebrew Language at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, in Israel.
For several decades, he has been one of the team of international scholars working on the Dead Sea Scrolls, particularly on the texts found in Cave 4 at Qumran.
In 1979 Qimron was co-opted by John Strugnell, the editor-in-chief of the Dead Sea Scrolls publication team, to assist in completing long-overdue work on the Halakhic Letter (4QMMT) on which Strugnell had been working alone since 1959.
In 1992, he published the two-volume A Facsimile Edition of the Dead Sea Scrolls.
It included, without permission, material on the Halakhic Letter (4QMMT) that Qimron had been working on for some 11 years.
Qimron had even given the document its title.
Qimron decided to sue the Biblical Archaeology Society for breaching his copyright on the grounds that the research it had published was his intellectual property, as he had reconstructed about 40% of the published text.
Such reconstruction is unique in the sense that if the original photographs had been given to 100 researchers, that number of different reconstructions would be made.
In 1993, Judge Dalia Dorner of the Israeli Supreme Court awarded Qimron the highest compensation allowed by law for aggravation in compensation against Shanks and others.
The work on the fragments was eventually completed and published in 1994.
Qimron was the first Israeli scholar on the team.
A 2000 appeal in front of Judge Aharon Barak and colleagues upheld the verdict.
